This painting shows a mix of plants and birds on a light background. There’s a tall bamboo stalk with blue-green leaves, a bushy plant with red flowers, and two small birds with orange beaks perched nearby. A red circle in the center holds Chinese characters, and wavy clouds stretch across the top. The artist signed this work in the middle circle—it’s a personal touch. The bright colors and detailed brushwork make the scene feel lively. Check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more works like this.
